Abstract
In some examples, one or more processors of a vehicle may receive location field-of-view (FOV) data for an upcoming location on a route traversed by the vehicle. For instance, the one or more processors may select, based on the location FOV data, one or more sensors to activate on the vehicle for performing sensing in a direction of a field of view indicated by the location FOV data. In addition, the one or more processors may cause the vehicle to traverse the upcoming location with the one or more sensors activated on the vehicle for performing sensing in the direction of the FOV indicated by the location FOV data.
